Deadline Approaching: Call for candidates in the At-Large community for the ICANN Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability
by ICANN At-Large Staff 24 Nov '14

24 Nov '14

Dear All, Olivier Crépin-Leblond, Chair of the At-Large Sub-Committee on the Selection of Members for the ICANN Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability, has requested a call for candidates in the At-Large community for the ICANN Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability. Interested members from the At-Large Community please submit an Expression of Interest (EoI) to staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> by Wednesday, 26 November 2014 23:59 UTC. Kindly see details below: On 10 October 2014, ICANN published Revised Enhancing ICANN Accountability: Process and Next Steps<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2014-10-10-en>, a document that describes the process to examine how ICANN's accountability mechanisms should be strengthened to address the absence of its historical relationship with the US Government and to strengthen its overall accountability and governance processes. The process will be carried out by a Cross Community Working Group (CCWG). A Drafting Team which included two members of the ALAC was convened to propose a Charter for the CCWG. On 05 November 2014, the Charter<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2014-11-05-en> was presented and is now undergoing ratification by ICANN's Supporting Organizations (SO) and Advisory Committees (AC). The Charter allows the ALAC to name five people and our intent is to select one per ICANN region (based on citizenship as per ALAC membership). Under the assumption that the charter will be ratified by the majority of ICANN ACs and SOs, the selection of ALAC representatives is now beginning. Members must be familiar with, or be prepared to quickly learn about, current ICANN accountability measures and the earlier Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT) efforts (see https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/enhancing-accountability-2014-05-06-en, Section "Inventory of ICANN's Accountability Efforts"). Members must also commit to actively participate in the activities of the CCWG-Accountability on an ongoing and long-term basis. This means attending conference calls which will likely last 60-90 minutes per week, ongoing mailing list interactions and the ability to travel to any potential face to face meeting, if the CCWG decides to do so. The total length of engagement is likely to be at least 6 months to a year or possibly more. The “At-Large Sub-Committee on the Selection of Members for the ICANN Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability" (“Selection Committee”) is requesting that interested members from the At-Large Community submit an Expression of Interest (EoI) to staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> by Wednesday, 26 November 2014 23:59 UTC. In their EoI, candidates should respond to the following: * A resume (maximum three pages) * A statement explaining why they are interested in serving in this capacity * A Declaration of Interests indicating any potential or actual conflicts * Respond to the following questions addressing your ability to carry out posed by the Selection Committee as follows: * (a) Why do you believe that you are in a position to fairly defend end user interests on the ICANN Accountability CCWG? (b) Are you prepared to act as a representative of the ALAC act according to the directions set by the ALAC? (c) Please describe previous roles you have held liaising on behalf of a third party. (d) Describe how you meet or will meet the criteria regarding ICANNs current accountability mechanisms and review processes (e) Are you prepared to make the participation and time commitment specified above? The candidate EoI will be published in a secured section of the Selection Committee wiki page<https://community.icann.org/x/QpDhAg>, which only Selection Committee members can access. Regards, Heidi Ullrich, Silvia Vivanco, Ariel Liang, Gisella Gruber, Nathalie Peregrine and Terri Agnew ICANN Policy Staff in support of ALAC E-mail: staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<applewebdata://68497759-1B04-4F9B-84B7-B9445B8F305F/Regards,%20Heidi%20Ullrich,%20Silvia%20Vivanco,%20Matt%20Ashtiani,%20Ariel%20Liang,%20Gisella%20Gruber,%20Nathalie%20Peregrine%20and%20Julia%20Charvolen%20ICANN%20Policy%20Staff%20in%20support%20of%20ALACmailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> Facebook: www.facebook.com/icann.atlarge<https://www.facebook.com/icann.atlarge> Twitter: @ICANN_AtLarge<https://twitter.com/ICANN_AtLarge>

Call For Volunteers: Join A Generation Panel, Speak Up for Your Language
by ICANN At-Large Staff 18 Nov '14

18 Nov '14

Dear All, Satish Babu, Co-Chair of the At-Large Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) Policy Working Group, in collaboration with Sarmad Hussain, Senior Manager of the ICANN IDN Program, has requested a call for volunteers in the Generation Panel. Kindly see the details below. ** Speak up for your Language! Join a Panel Today In the past, labels in the Internet's Root Zone could only contain ASCII characters. The rules for creating new top-level domain labels were simple: labels must (i) only be composed of letters in the English alphabet, and (ii) consist of two to 63 characters. All of that is changing now. The future holds a multilingual Internet, where a user from anywhere across the world can navigate entirely in his or her native language. Be a part of this historic change! ICANN is calling for volunteers to serve on one of several panels that will define the rules for generating new top-level domain labels for the script or writing systems for their community. Join a Generation Panel today by emailing idntlds(a)icann.org. Make sure to tell us the language you speak and the script or writing system you want to get involved with. Please help inform and motivate others to join as well. The goal of these panels is to support the use of Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) by determining what is a valid top-level domain label in each script or writing system. This involves answering three questions: (i) which subset of characters from the various scripts can be used to form a label*, (ii) which of these characters (if any) may be considered confusable or variants by end users, and (iii) what are additional constraints** on these labels? As there is a single Root Zone, all such label generation rules for all the scripts must be merged into a single reference, which is called the Label Generation Rule-set (LGR). The ICANN community has established a procedure<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> to develop the LGR for the Root Zone. This procedure is divided into three steps: 1. The basis is a subset of Unicode code points which may be appropriate for the Root Zone and called the Maximal Starting Repertoire (MSR). 2. Communities representing various scripts (e.g., Arabic, Cyrillic, Devanagari, Greek, Chinese, Latin, Thai, etc.) are invited to organize into Generation Panels to start from the MSR and propose the label generation rules (which contains the three types of rules defined above) for their respective scripts. 3. The script-based proposals developed by the communities are reviewed by a panel of experts called the Integration Panel. Proposals that meet the criteria in the procedure<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> are integrated into the LGR by the Integration Panel. The LGR is incrementally built upon until it contains all the necessary scripts. For Step 1, ICANN recently released the Maximal Starting Repertoire (MSR-1)<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2014-06-20-en>, covering 22 scripts (Arabic, Bengali, Cyrillic, Devanagari, Georgian, Greek, Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Han, Hangul, Hebrew, Hiragana, Kannada, Katakana, Lao, Latin, Malayalam, Oriya, Sinhala, Tamil, Telugu and Thai) and containing 32,790 code points short-listed from 97,973 allowable code points from Unicode version 6.3. Work on additional scripts will be completed soon. Step 2 is now underway; ICANN needs your help in developing proposals to extend the Root Zone LGR to cover each of these scripts. There is a role for everyone: general script community representation as well as volunteers with knowledge of scripts, linguistics, Unicode, IDNA/DNS or policy. Volunteering is easy; just send an email to idntlds(a)icann.org. Join a Generation Panel today. Help ICANN support top-level domain names in your language! Note: *Code points appropriate for labels must be letters and should be in widespread modern use. **For example, a label cannot be formed entirely by combining marks and must contain at least two letters Regards, Heidi Ullrich, Silvia Vivanco, Ariel Liang, Gisella Gruber, Nathalie Peregrine and Terri Agnew ICANN Policy Staff in support of ALAC E-mail: staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> Facebook: www.facebook.com/icann.atlarge<https://www.facebook.com/icann.atlarge> Twitter: @ICANN_AtLarge<https://twitter.com/ICANN_AtLarge>
